Excel - CountIf - Multiple Criteria
« on: February 20, 2006, 15:27 »
Hi All,

Another excel questions  :laugh:

I have one sheet that is in the format of (basically);

Month     Cust    Invoice No     Fees     Exp


Months are Jan, Feb etc. Cust is a choice of 5.

I want (on another sheet) to count the number of invoices done for each customer on a certain month.

So I thought I could do a coutif function, but unsure how to use it for multiple criteria.

Any ideas?

Thanks

DJ

Think I've got it

Code: [Select]
{=SUM(('Sheet1'!$C$5:$C$600=CustA)*('Sheet1'!$U$5:$U$600=June))}


Now another one!!....

How do I change this so that it Sums a certain column, if the Cust is CustA, Month is June and the values I to sum are in E5:E600

Cheers :thumb:

Yes - sorry forgot to update this.

Everything is working. Forgot to CTRL + SHIFT + Enter to make the array formula work.
